Really? Any current console game for those 3? I don't get this.

Trade in a game, or a CONSOLE? How does anybody not do this? I'd just trade some old shitty game.

Something here I don't get..

Nah, my full time work doesn't allow me to. But I'm heavily into the competitive community scene and play in an open-setting league

From article:

"The game you take home can be for any of the current generation system. So, for example, you could bring an Xbox 360 game from four years ago and walk out with a PlayStation 3 version of Call of Duty: Ghosts.

Bring in a copy of the first Assassin’s Creed for the Xbox 360, you can take home Assassin’s Creed IV . Bring in a copy of NHL 10 for the PlayStation 3, walk out with Call of Duty: Ghosts."


Seems like this promotion will cost these stores a lot of lost revenue. Don't know the rationale behind it.

Marketing, excess inventory etc. It's still possible this is all BS. But I'll go to future shop tomorrow regardless to check it out.

FS/BB not being cunts for once

I used to take advantage of their trade-in program really bad.... like, I would buy $60 games for $3.99 after price matching, open them in the parking lot, and trade them in for $30 profit... so many free games.

Probably not ethical but fuck those guys.
